What specific Orthodox resources do you need more of?

About Me

I am a mother to four busy children and a graduate of Pratt Institute (BFA) and Holy Cross Greek Orthodox Seminary (M.Div.) Along the way, I had the great opportunity to visit Orthodox churches in Finland, Mexico, Alaska, Germany, Brussels, Amsterdam, Prague, Switzerland, Paris, Venice, Greece, Turkey, and Romania.
I am thankful for the online chance to share Orthodox ideas to keep our children engaged and wish your families many blessings~

Here is an excellent way to teach the Nativity and meaning of Christmas in an Orthodox Christian animation for your children and teens. It is brief, but rich with iconography and hymnology in three languages!

The hymn proclaims the Kontakion:Today the virgin giveths birth to Him
Who is the Servent in Essenceand the earth offereth a cave to Him
who is unapproachableAngels with shepherds give glory,with a Star the Magi do journey, for our sake a young Child is born,who is pre- eternal God.
